lockdep: Print a nicer description for normal deadlocks
The lockdep output can be pretty cryptic, having nicer output
can save a lot of head scratching. When a normal deadlock
scenario is detected by lockdep (lock A -> lock B and there
exists a place where lock B -> lock A) we now get the following
new output:
other info that might help us debug this:
Possible unsafe locking scenario:
CPU0 CPU1
---- ----
lock(lockB);
lock(lockA);
lock(lockB);
lock(lockA);
*** DEADLOCK ***
On cases where there's a deeper chair, it shows the partial
chain that can cause the issue:
Chain exists of:
lockC --> lockA --> lockB
Possible unsafe locking scenario:
CPU0 CPU1
---- ----
lock(lockB);
lock(lockA);
lock(lockB);
lock(lockC);
*** DEADLOCK ***
